I'm way behind on mail, but ...
Neil,
Don't think it has anything to do with QEMM, since I run QEMM and
haven't seen that problem with Arachne.
I have, however, seen it with QEMM when Optimizing and I have to enter a
space or whatever to get past the gripe about a protected batch file.
So I'd look to see if there is an extra blank line at the end of any of
the cfg files, or in Arachne.bat, or ??? QEMM seems to pass through
"blanks" ... You might try looking at the files with a HEX editor to
see if a space isn't one or a blank line has a hidden character or ???
l.d.
